 this weird, quirky little thing that my camera did somehow reminded me of some of my mums old shots from the 70's.

it happened while i was attempting some VERY belated christmas shots. i just started a new job with some crazy hours, so we have been trying to squeeze in holidays around that schedule.

thankfully, ifs my sons first go around at them, and he seems amused enough at them all not to care if we are a few days late... not that he would know anyway!

Honestly? You engaged the Critique Club on this??? That's even funnier! Really, it's beyond critique. What they going to say? More careful lighting... ?

Still love it.

GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

well, after I stopped giggling, I looked at your score, and didn't giggle quite so hard anymore.

I like the mischief in this image and the little kid is a joy ... did he wiggle the tree just a bit to get that burst of light design going?

Of course it breaks every rule in the book and that's the way you wanted it - you went with the humor and fun.

So, if your mum's pictures made you smile as much as this did me, and a few others, well your mission is accomplished.

Clearly an intentional effort that is probably getting slammed. You knew it would. My guess is oscarthepig.
